Hearing the conversation between Zhou Cang and Li Haodang, Ye Xuan also felt that something was amiss. Although there was nothing wrong with their names, even a fool would be able to tell that something was wrong with their conversation.
"Ye Xuan, sit down with Yu Lan first." Zhou Cang said to the two of them.
"Yes, Master."
Ye Xuan nodded when he heard this. Then, he sat not far away while Guan Yulan sat beside him.
"Guan … Yulan, is there any conflict between Master and the Sky Shattering Sect's Vice Sect Leader?"
After sitting down, Ye Xuan couldn't help but ask.
He had only been in the Shattering Cloud Sect for a month, so he didn't know much. However, Guan Yulan grew up in the Shattering Cloud Sect, so she definitely knew.
"He's the Vice Sect Leader's disciple. His meridians were broken by Fan Yue." Guan Yulan said with a red face, looking like a little girl. The surrounding disciples were stunned.
"I see." Ye Xuan nodded.
Now he understood why the Vice Sect Leaders of the two sects were hostile towards each other.
It seemed that the competition between the two sects was quite dangerous. Although there were two Elders as the judges, there were still some accidents.
"Fan Yue participated in the competition when he was sixteen. Two years later, he was only in the Ninth Realm of the Martial Path. His talent isn't that great. Since that's the case, I'll take revenge for my Senior Brother. I'll break Fan Yue's meridians too. "
Ye Xuan made a decision in his heart.
Since he was paid, he would help him.
After all, he was Zhou Cang's only disciple. He received two thousand points every month. Naturally, he had to share Zhou Cang's burden.
However, Zhou Cang was hesitating. He didn't want Ye Xuan to fight.
"I didn't expect him to break through to the Ninth Realm of the Martial Path. It seems that I have to be more careful. It wasn't easy for me to find a True Spirit Realm seed. I can't just let him die like this. Now that my time is almost up, I have to be cautious. I can't let anything happen to him. "
This was Zhou Cang's thought.
On the surface, he was the Vice Sect Master of the Shattering Cloud Sect, but behind his back, he actually had some unknown schemes. The target of this conspiracy was originally Zhong Yang, but now it was Ye Xuan.
However, Ye Xuan was completely unaware of the danger lurking around him.
Before Ye Xuan arrived, the two Vice Sect Masters of the Shattering Cloud Sect and the Shattering Sky Sect had already discussed the contents of this competition.
After that, Li Haodang stood up and began to explain the contents of the competition.
There were five matches in total, but it was not a best-of-three system.
For these five matches, they had to draw lots to decide the order of the first to the fifth. Then, the number one of the two sides would start to fight. However, the winning side could choose to continue to fight. The side that lost five matches would be considered the loser.
Simply put, as long as Number One was strong enough, he could fight five consecutive battles.
On the way here, Guan Yulan had told Ye Xuan that the order of battle this time was the order of the inner disciples. Although Ye Xuan didn't have a ranking, Zhong Yang hadn't returned yet, so he replaced Zhong Yang to battle.
"Ye Xuan, you'll draw lots."
At this moment, Zhou Cang suddenly shouted.
Hearing this, Ye Xuan walked over and pulled out a bamboo stick from the bamboo tube in his hand.
"Zhu Hong, who is this?"
When Ye Xuan saw the name on the bamboo stick, he was stunned. He didn't seem to have heard of this name.
"You're drawing the order of the other side." Guan Yulan whispered.
"Oh, okay."
Ye Xuan handed the bamboo stick to Zhou Cang, then pulled out three more sticks. They were all names he had never heard of before.
This meant that the Shattering Sky Sect's trump card, Fan Yue, was ranked fifth!
"Haha, you're in luck. If Fan Yue was the first to fight, you would have lost five consecutive battles. No, six consecutive battles." Li Haodang suddenly laughed.
Five consecutive losses referred to losing all five matches. However, if they lost this time, the Shattering Cloud Sect would have lost six consecutive battles.
Zhou Cang's face twitched. He snorted coldly and didn't say anything.
Next, it was Li Haodang's turn to decide the order of the Shattering Cloud Sect.
"Huo Yuan, Ding Long, Su Sheng, Guan Yulan, Ye Xuan."
Li Haodang read out the names one by one.
Coincidentally, the trump card, Ye Xuan, was ranked fifth, just like Fan Yue.
As such, the order of both sides was decided.
Zhou Cang's expression relaxed a little, but he was still very serious. This was because he could see that in addition to Fan Yue, the Shattering Sky Sect had another mid-stage Eighth Realm martial artist.
On the other hand, in addition to Ye Xuan, there were only four early-stage Eighth Realm martial artists. If they wanted to win, they had to rely on this last battle.
Next, Zhou Cang sent someone to announce the rules and order of the battle. He then carefully reminded Ye Xuan and the other four.
"Ye Xuan, it seems like you're going to fight Fan Yue. However, you have to be very careful. Fan Yue is very skilled. Victory and defeat are common …" Zhou Cang reminded Ye Xuan.
"Master, I understand."
Ye Xuan nodded. He also knew that Fan Yue was already in the Ninth Realm of the Martial Path. Furthermore, he had once broken the meridians of one of Zhou Cang's disciples. He was extremely vicious.
However, he wasn't someone to be trifled with. Although he couldn't compare to Fan Yue in terms of age and realm, his physique was definitely far superior to Fan Yue's.
He believed that he had a high chance of winning this battle.
Nearly a thousand Shattering Cloud Sect disciples had gathered in the martial arts field. There were outer disciples, inner disciples, and even mentors and elders.
This was Ye Xuan's first time fighting in front of so many people. If he wanted to establish himself as the Eldest Senior Brother of the inner sect in these people's hearts, he had to win this battle.
"I have to win this time. This way, I can get 30,000 points and use it to break through to the mid-stage Ninth Realm of the Martial Path …"
Ye Xuan secretly thought to himself.
The Shattering Cloud Sect was actually just a springboard for him. His stage in the future would not be limited to this.
Therefore, he would only stay in the Shattering Cloud Sect for a while. When the time came, he would leave.
"The competition between the two sects starts now!"
Just as he was deep in thought, someone suddenly walked up to the ring and shouted.
Ye Xuan's eyes narrowed. He was shocked to find that the referee of the competition was actually their Mountain Guardian Elder.
"It is said that this Mountain Guardian Elder is at the peak of the Tenth Realm of the Martial Path. He is an expert second only to Master in the sect …"
Ye Xuan thought to himself. Then, he followed Huo Yuan and Guan Yulan to the side of the ring.
As for the Shattering Sky Sect, they stood on the other side of the ring.
"The bet for the competition between the two sects is ten million taels of gold. The one who loses five rounds will be the loser." The Mountain Guardian Elder continued to shout.
The martial arts field, which was originally silent, was suddenly filled with exclamations.
Ten million taels of gold was equivalent to one billion taels of silver.
The bet for the competition between the two sects was actually so big?
